TA' PINU SANCTUARY - GHARB
|

The monumental shrine of Our Lady of Ta' Pinu was built between 1920 and 1931. It is also an architectural masterpiece, especially its interior, with its superb sculptures and craftsmanship of designs on Maltese stone. The sanctuary was constructed adjacent to a still existent chapel where the young Karmni Grima is said to have received a message for prayer from Our Lady back in 1883.
A series of 14 marble statues representing the Via Crucis or Way of the Cross line up Ghammar Hill which faces Ta' Pinu.
